Timmy (aka. Captain Avatar) from <a href="http://www.setisynergy.com/">SETI Synergy</a> has kindly made this offer to anyone who crunches with BOINC:

<i>
If you don't have the time, talent or the program to create
an Avatar let me know and I'll help create one for you!

My offer is free to all good people crunching for Boinc...
If you have files or images send to <b>avatarhelp@gmail.com</b>

My way of giving back to The community.
</i>

And a fine job he's doing too, I might add. <img src="http://www.teampicard.net/images/smiles/icon_thumright.gif" border="0">

3) Message boards : Number crunching : Multiprocessor utilisation (Message 3185)

OK, I get it. The very reason I joined cpdn was to put some computers to work while waiting for available sah work. Thus, I'm not very eager to crank up the resource share beyond 50%. No biggie anyway, this will only affect two p3-500 and four Xeon-550 processors, certainly not the latest and greatest around.

Thanks guys:-)

BTW Thyme, is your team recruiting? If so, how much of a trekkie does one have to be to fit in?

One of my recently cpdn-boinced boxes sports 2 processors, but cpdn only generates 50% cpu load. Not due to processor affinity or single-threadedness it seems, because the load is somewhat divided between the two (although unevenly so) and never pushes any of them to 100% load. Boinc (running as a service) does not trigger more than one cpdn process at once, as it does with the single-threaded sah client.

Does anyone know the reason for this behaviour? Can it be remedied?

I haven\'t tried cpdn on the quad-cpu box yet, maybe that one would stop at 25%...

Cheers,
Brickhead (cpdn newbie, sah intermediate)
